drenyce311 Posted October 4, 2015 Share #251 Posted October 4, 2015 Glad to inform you guys. 12 went in to take the final. 12 came out and passed and went into the verbal. And we're ALL going to phase 2. 12 spots were available. Couldn't be happier at the moment. Those who are about awaiting to get into phase one. Study study study. Can't emphasize how important it is. But it was well worth it. Phase 2 starts October 21st. I guess we'll get calls tomorrow to schedule our medicals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtmason Posted October 4, 2015 Share #252 Posted October 4, 2015 12 for 12 is a pretty hard act to follow! Excellent work, my dudes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetfan74 Posted October 6, 2015 Share #253 Posted October 6, 2015 drenyce311, how long was the approximate wait between the panel interview and when they notified you that you were accepted to phase 1? And is there a physical in-between? If so, what does it consist of? Whats the screening consist of? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And is there a physical in-between? If so, what does it consist of? Whats the screening consist of? My wait time www about 2 months. Once they know who's in the class there's a physical about 2-3 weeks prior to phase 1. Physical agility test, vision, hearing. Then a full medical after phase 1 when you pass. I'm actually here right now at the facility getting my medical done again. But this time it's the same thing plus a drug test.

jetfan74 Posted October 6, 2015 Share #255 Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) 2 months...damn. I recently had my panel interview and they said they were going to have a class in November, I guess it depends on the amount of qualified people they have to consider. I've been sweating since the interview just to hear something, after 2 months I might not have hair on my head. Thanks for the answers, BTW!!

jetfan74 Posted October 6, 2015 Share #258 Posted October 6, 2015 Jetfan, I'm right there with you. All we can do is wait and stay patient. Did you take the S&D on Aug 28th? I thought we would have heard back by now, they said not many people passed so I wonder if they're going to have to do another exam to fill up the class. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we would have heard back by now, they said not many people passed so I wonder if they're going to have to do another exam to fill up the class. Yes, I did. We are in the same group/class. Panel review was last Monday. I asked about being notified about Phase 2 and was told that it could come at any time depending on available seats in the class. If not enough people passed/qualified, they will need to process more people to try and fill'er up with qualified candidates. Qualified candidates will just have to wait. I'm just happy to have made it this far. So Republic, keep an eye out for an invitation. They need engineers, so hope is still alive!

jetfan74 Posted October 6, 2015 Share #260 Posted October 6, 2015 I asked about being notified about Phase 2 and was told that it could come at any time depending on available seats in the class. Don't you mean Phase 1? They told me they have a class starting in November, I hope that's still true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtmason Posted October 6, 2015 Share #261 Posted October 6, 2015 Jetfan74, Any idea how many passed the S/D exam out of our group? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtmason Posted October 6, 2015 Share #262 Posted October 6, 2015 Don't you mean Phase 1? They told me they have a class starting in November, I hope that's still true. No. At the end of panel interview, I asked about when I would be notified that I was moving on to Phase II. I was told to keep an eye on my inbox, and that I could be notified at any time. That's when they went into how things are dependent on the number of qualified candidates and available seats. I heard a tentative start date was November. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard a tentative start date was November. Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't Phase 2 depend entirely on if you get through Phase 1? As far as how many people passed, I have no idea. I asked the HR Rep and she kind of gave me the impression that she didn't want to share the number, all she said was "not many" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtmason Posted October 6, 2015 Share #264 Posted October 6, 2015 I am the one that stands corrected. I meant Phase 1. Apologies. I got the same kind of response from her. I had asked her too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetfan74 Posted October 6, 2015 Share #265 Posted October 6, 2015 I am the one that stands corrected. I meant Phase 1. Apologies. No sweat, we're all in the same boat looking for whatever information we can find and at the end of the day not learning much of anything new. Thats why I questioned your post, It went against everything I had previously read and I figured I got something else wrong about this long and never-ending process 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drenyce311 Posted October 6, 2015 Share #267 Posted October 6, 2015 Just be Patient. And keep studying. Can't stress that enough. STUDY STUDY. If your feeling guilty. It's because it its. Study some more. Believe me it will pay off. There was a part of phase one where I got a low score in of my quizzes. Brought my confidence level down a bit. But that was because I didn't know the answer to the question. Now I do. And so far everything your going to learn has to be written verbatim. That philosophy will never go away. It got me studying and I know the book of rules now. It is a lot of information. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drenyce311 Posted October 6, 2015 Share #268 Posted October 6, 2015 Well just another FYI. Just came back from my medical. I'm in phase 2 pending medical clearance.

All we can do is wait and stay patient. I'm with you guys in the same boat. Had the panel on Sept. 28 now just waiting for that call/email. This has been a loooong stressful process so far.

Had the panel on Sept. 28 now just waiting for that call/email. This has been a loooong stressful process so far. But everyone says it will be worth it! Welcome aboard, JR! In this boat, the more the merrier! The guys ahead of us, like Dre, have hung in there and now they are about to be paid employees going into OJT. I find their experience inspirational as I wait. They have reached that light at the end of the "Tunnel of Patience." Let's me know it's do-able. We just have to hold tight. Or be held tightly. One or the other. Or both. LOL! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drenyce311 Posted October 7, 2015 Share #271 Posted October 7, 2015 Looking back. I was like looking at the book of rules like"holy crap. How am I going to memorize all this. And where to start!" its amazing how much info we know now. It would've been a shame if one of us failed out and all that studying goes to waste. But we're 12 strong, hopefully 12 all the way to the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
